    Business Adapter – Importing Exchange Rate Sets into Flexera One

    Hi All,

     

    We have exchange rate data available in our Fusion source (Exchange Rate Date, Currency and Exchange Rate Value) and would like to import new Exchange Rate Sets into Flexera One using a Business Adapter.

     

     

     

    I configured a Business Adapter to test this, but the exchange rate set/rates are not being created in Flexera One. Has anyone successfully imported Exchange Rate Sets and their currency rates through a Business Adapter? If so, could you please advise what may be missing or incorrect in the configuration below?

     

     

     

    Business Adapter XML Config part:

     

      <Object Type="Currency" Name="Currency" Update="False" Create="True" OutputField="Currency_ID">

     

      <Property Type="currencycode" Name="Currency Code" Update="Do not blank" ValueType="Field Value" Value="CURRENCY_CODE" UseForMatching="True" Length="32" />

     

      </Object>

     

      <Object Type="CurrencyRateSnapshot" Name="Currency Snapshot" Update="False" Create="True" OutputField="CurrencySnapshot_ID">

     

      <Property Type="snapshotdate" Name="Snapshot Date" Update="Do not blank" ValueType="Field Value" Value="EXCHANGE_DATE" UseForMatching="True" DataType="Date" UseNullValueForMatching="SetPropertyToNull" />

     

      <Property Type="snapshotname" Name="Snapshot Name" Update="Do not blank" ValueType="Field Value" Value="EXCHANGE_DATE" UseForMatching="True" />

     

      </Object>

     

      <Object Type="CurrencyRate" Name="Currency Rate" Update="False" Create="True" OutputField="CurrencyRate_ID">

     

      <Property Type="currencyid" Name="Currency ID" Update="Do not blank" ValueType="Field Value" Value="Currency_ID" UseForMatching="True" />

     

      <Property Type="snapshotid" Name="Snapshot ID" Update="Do not blank" ValueType="Field Value" Value="CurrencySnapshot_ID" UseForMatching="True" />

     

      <Property Type="rate" Name="Exchange Rate" Update="Do not blank" ValueType="Field Value" Value="EXCHANGE_RATE" DataType="Float" />

     

      </Object>

     

     </Import>

     

     </Imports>

    I created a license which has a total quantity of 4 billion. Now I want to manually add the consumption for that license which is around 3 billion but I cannot add a value above 2.147 billion. Is there a way to add 3 billion on the value?

    Please find below the screenshot of where I'm trying to add the value of 3 billion.

    • Flex-Jeremy (Flexera Software)

      License consumption counts in Flexera One ITAM are currently limited to 2.147 billion. This is because the number is limited to the maximum value of the Integer data type. The recommended practice is to use values at an appropriate scale rather than very large raw numbers.

      For example, you can normalize values from billions to millions (e.g., 2,000,000 representing 2 million), avoiding integer overflow while keeping calculations and reporting manageable within the existing data model.

       

      An existing enhancement request in the Ideas portal proposes updating this value to accept larger values.

      Change all numerical values for Purchases and Licenses to BIGINT

    Besides marking an asset that has been disposed as Ignored in All inventory. Is the best practice to delete the device from All Inventory as we have the history of the device in All Assets? (this is for Desktop, Laptop, IPad/Tablets)

    We are looking at cleaning up our All Inventory, and we are wondering if for devices that we know have been disposed and will never come back into the environment, should we delete them from All Inventory as we already have the history of the device in All Assets.

      @samccroskey​ 

      I think that some organizations' practice is to clean up inventory by deleting inventory after a pre-configured period of time, e.g. using Flexera One ITAM's built-on capabilities:

      Obsolete InventoryOther organizations may leave the older inventory in there without bothering about it.

       

      I would personally prefer to clean the older inventory that is considered redundant (noise) unless there's a business reason for keeping it... However, I would appreciate others to chime in with their experience and recommendations.

       

      Thanks,

    Custom Report - Flexera One

    I would like to create a custom report that displays only server devices from the inventory. The columns I need in the report are:

     

    • Server Name
    • Status
    • Operating System (OS)

     

    However, I am unable to find a filter that clearly distinguishes servers from end-user devices (desktops/laptops).

     

    Could you please advise if there is a built-in filter, device type attribute, or recommended approach to identify and report only server assets.

    @dcchauhandeepak​ - You can filter on servers by adding the "Server" column either from the All Inventory or Active Inventory view. If you prefer to use the Report Builder, select the Object "Inventory Device" and add the object properties: Inventory Device Name, Status, Operating system and Server. Filter on Server=Yes and you have your report.

    1. Can someone provide me stats/info on the Flexera Kubernetes Agents as to what resources it uses on a cluster.
    2. Can Flexera use k8s API to extract inventory?
    3. Can Flexera integrate with ACS (Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security (RHACS))?

    We have a situation in our organization  where they do not want to install the kubernetes agents and they do not want to installs IBM ILS. Can someone provide me with answers from above.

      @IronManMK10​ 

      Please allow me to point towards the Two FlexNet Kubernetes Agents documentation first as I think that addresses some of your questions:

      1. The Lightweight Kubernetes Agent was created to lower the resources needed compared to the full Kubernetest inventory agent. Please refer to the subsections of Editing configuration for the Flexera Kubernetes Inventory Agent for customizing its configuration options.
      2. Flexera's Kubernetes inventory agents make use of Kubernetes APIs to extract inventory, but please elaborate further if it's something specific you're looking for doing through the APIs.
      3. There's to my knowledge no direct integration with RHACS, but please feel free to elaborate on the specific use cases you have in mind behind this question.

       

      IBM ILS is related to IBM's licensing requirements when Cloud Paks are running in containerized environments, and Flexera's Kubernetes inventory agents communicate with its APIs to report on Cloud Pak license consumption from containerized environments.

       

      Thanks,

    Application Usage Tracking Target

    I have created a target to enable usage tracking via the FlexNet inventory agent and have selected my own machine to test this with. Once I have created the target, is that all I need to do? How do I check if this has worked ok?

    Thanks

    Question with a best answer.

    Best Answer

    To have a target that controls settings that will apply to all FlexNet inventory agent installations, you can a configure the target to cover the subnets/IP addresses "0.0.0.0/1" and "128.0.0.0/1":

    How can we increase the Flexera API rate limit?

    We integrated Flexera One into our Terraform workflow, but we regularly hit the current limit of 50 API actions per minute.

    For example, one Terraform apply for 10 projects creates around 10 budgets and 30 alerts, plus additional authentication and query requests.

    Is it possible to increase the rate limit for our organization or account? If so, how can this be requested or configured? Thanks, Anton
